The staff was so nice they slid our time slot by 15 mins so we could keep to the 90min total duration. We were quickly taken to our bay and was provided instructions on logging in to the system and selecting the games etc. the games were sooo fun! It really showed our competitive spirit! There were lines on the ground denoting your level of expertise so it's customizable to your skill level. We order a few drinks which were delivered quickly and tasted fantastic! The decor and vibe was so awesome!! There was so much to see and surprises at every turn. No spoilers but check it out! Of course we will be back!!

The food is pretty good, as well as the variety of options for wine and cocktails.

I enjoyed the wine, and was offered a sample of their barrel reserve wine, which was a bordeaux style wine, which we enjoyed. The ambiance and service were amazing. I am hoping that they bring back the raviolli, because it was definitely my favorite entree there.

He felt it was clean and relaxing, he did say the water in the tub was too hot so it was hard to eat or drink. They offer packages that includes "all you can drink" during the hour long spa, but based on my husband's experience, it's better to drink the beers before or after. I waited with the rest of the family by the brewery and was surprised at how empty it was on a Saturday afternoon. Perhaps not many people know about this place? The ambiance was cool, they have lots of board games for kids and adults and a nice selection of drinks. Staff was friendly!

The NICEST and newest Admirals Club at DCA is at the E Gates!…read more I've been to the American Airlines Admirals Clubs at the C and D Gates, but the E Gates location is on a completely different level. Since the D Gate Club was closed for renovation during my visit, I decided to give the E Gate Club a try--and I definitely wasn't disappointed. This is easily the nicest and most modern Admirals Club at DCA. It's large, spacious, bright, and has a much more contemporary feel than the other clubs in the terminal. There's simply more room to spread out, which makes a big difference when the airport is busy and you're trying to escape the terminal chaos. The food selection also seemed larger than what I've seen at the other Admirals Clubs, although I suspect the actual offerings are probably pretty similar across the terminal. Either way, there were plenty of options to grab something to eat and a drink before the flight. After spending time at the C and D Gate clubs, walking into the E Gate location definitely felt like an upgrade. If you're flying American out of DCA and have access to the E Gate Admirals Club, this is definitely worth checking out. It's a substantial upgrade in terms of space, design, and overall atmosphere.

At the time that I entered it was quite busy, so I had to post up at the bar until seating with a table had become available. I had about 2 hours until my evening flight and it took maybe about 50 minutes for the place to practically clear out. I think that I've been in more spacious lounges (non-Admirals), however, this one was still nice. There were a good number of seats and tables all around, so spacious enough to relax, eat or charge your devices while waiting for your flight. I did think that the restrooms were small, either 2 or 3 stalls in the ladies - thankfully there were no line problems while I was there. There was a guacamole bar, a decent selection of finger foods - think charcuterie, a small selection of hot food included braised beef (I was very happy to find this) and potatoes, along with a couple of desserts. There is also an open bar along with a coffee and tea area. I didn't get a chance to try the guacamole, and I didn't care for the banana pudding cup but otherwise it was an a-ok menu. I spent most of my last hour relaxing in a comfy chair, charging my phone while catching up on messages and sipping Coke Zero. I definitely prefer the "peace" of a lounge over the hustle and bustle at a gate any day.

Both the savory breakfast biscuit sandwich and the shakshuka with lamb were favorites at our table, too.

This would've been a higher rating (and more pleasant visit) if bartender (Simone) was more accommodating with my drink request. I was asked by Simone to move from one designated line to another (which placed me behind more guests). Next, I was asked for my drink order (2 classic margaritas for myself and my guest), but for some odd reason she wouldn't make both. She first responded "for who?" then asked me to have my guest pick the second drink (which I have never experienced in all the lounges I've visited throughout the country). Her tone was not only rude but uncalled for. I simply responded by accepting the one drink and returned to my seat to give the news to my guest. We were disappointed in the customer service and unwelcomed attitude by the attending bartender.

All this while things were chaotic and other travelers were frustrated and tired. He truly was a gem as he remained calm and helpful.

The welcoming front desk advised us to find seating in the section behind the elevators, which featured a huge fireplace, a living room-like atmosphere, and huge floor to ceiling windows looking out over the airport. On this side, there was a fridge with some fruit and yogurts, plus a drink counter with sparkling water taps, teas, and coffees. On the other side is the bar, bathrooms, more seating areas but mostly tables and chairs, and the food. So we walked back and forth from each section, but preferred that to being in the busier part. We found 4 comfortable chairs facing each other and ended up at times sitting on the rug in between playing board games. The bathrooms were pristine, and my kids loved the cherry blossom display next to the door. The food was ample, with fixing to make sandwiches with, plus soups, and lots of other items to snack on, plus granola and nut mixes, brownies and cake bites, and a coke machine that had so many options! Plus, the handmade guacamole station- the guacamole was delicious and my kids loved it. I wish there was a takeout box or two so I could have brought my children's leftover sandwiches on the plane with us. Thanks to everyone who made our visit so pleasant!

I hate to give anyone a poor review, but Aviation Adventures was one of the worst experiences in my…read morelife, and I was in the military. I had to leave my first flight school because the college I was at was not affiliated with that flight school. Aviation Adventure is. First to start, I had at the time around 70 hours of steam gauges. Due to COVID I had not received flight instruction in almost a year. I brought up an issue I had with a CFI and after that it was down hill. My new CFI was horrible. I was his first student and he told me in the plane that he didn't want to be a CFI but was forced to because of a deal he made with Bob Hepp after buying a Cessna from the University of South Dakota. He said I needed to be there an hour early, but would show up sometimes 30 min late. When I asked for ground instruction on the G-1000 he said it was a waste of time, we would do it in the air. Going from steam to G-1000 was tough in the air. The CFI insulted me, cursed at me and told me I was acting like a sensitive millennial. He went on a rant while I was flying about people being too sensitive. I didn't feel comfortable asking questions because when I did the guy told me I was stupid. When getting ground instruction and my CFI wasn't on his phone he was chatting with other CFIs. At one point he made fun of me in front of other students and CFIs. It finally came down to one last flight and I had enough, after the guy yelling and cursing at me I just wanted out of the plane. I pretended to not understand trim so he would end the lesson early. I am sure there are good CFIs at Aviation Adventures, but I never encountered one. The CFIs I encountered were vindictive, Bob Hepp bashed me at my college, and my CFI wrote nasty notes in my online record. Why? I asked for help, I wanted a new CFI, I wanted instruction on the G-1000. Flight training is expensive, it takes a lot of time and study. Aviation Adventures treats student pilots horribly. We are paying customers, but are treated like dirt. I almost quit my dream of flying because of my experience with Aviation Adventures. I was excited to start there, there aircraft are nice, you get experience at a towered airport. That aside, you want tailored instruction, in a friendly learning conducive environment look elsewhere. I concur with the other reviews, it is not a place where student/customer concerns are valued, they are punished till you get frustrated and leave and Bob Hepp has your money.
